when you have as many bikes as I do, both clincher/tubular, 23mm to 33mm, vintage/modern, etc/etc - it becomes impossible (for me) to have a saddle pack for each. Besides, the mini backpack pouch allows for a sandwich & soda or extra tool, even my superlightweight water walkers if my ride is long and crossing or following a river.

Here's another regular - Swiss national champion's winter gillet.




Some might call it a surveyor's vest, or a shooter's vest, or a boat fisherman's vest. I call it the perfect cycling vest in temperate climes. Not for heavy sweat'ers.


But I really wear it because it is so darn stylish!!!
